Lutheran Towers Launches Nourishing Souls Campaign to Strengthen Spiritual Wellness for Seniors

May 11, 2025

Lutheran Towers officially launched its highly anticipated Nourishing Souls Campaign on Sunday, May 11, during the annual Lutheran Towers Sunday celebration in partnership with the Lutheran Church of the Redeemer.


This two-year initiative marks a significant milestone in the organization’s commitment to whole-person wellness by addressing one of the most essential, yet often under-supported, components of senior well-being: spiritual wellness. The campaign is centered on the creation and sustainability of a community chaplaincy program designed to serve the residents of Lutheran Towers with compassionate spiritual care and emotional support.

“This campaign is about more than just providing services, it’s about creating a sacred space for our residents to feel heard, supported, and spiritually connected throughout all stages of life,“ said Nicole Porter, Business Services Manager at Lutheran Towers. “A dedicated chaplain will play a vital role in fostering that sense of belonging and holistic well-being.“


The launch event took place in the Sims Atrium, where attendees were invited to meet with residents and staff to learn more about the campaign and its anticipated impact. Informational displays and conversations highlighted the role of spiritual care in aging well, and guests were encouraged to consider making a pledge to support the program.

Lutheran Towers has long championed a wellness model grounded in eight dimensions: physical, emotional, social, intellectual, environmental, financial, occupational, and now, through this campaign, spiritual. The Nourishing Souls Campaign seeks to ensure that every resident has access to personal spiritual guidance, prayer, group services, and moments of reflection led by a compassionate and certified chaplain.


Community support is key to the campaign’s success. Donations will directly fund the chaplain’s presence and programming, including grief support groups, memorial services, and one-on-one spiritual counseling.


“With the help of our generous supporters, we can continue walking in faith alongside our residents,“ said Executive Director Karon Nixon. “This is how we uplift lives and nourish souls.“
